It’s been 87 months in the works … but IT’S FINALLY HAPPENING … Jessica Simpson and several members of her family arrived to an L.A. hospital this morning … because it’s BABY TIME!!!! Jessica, her mother Tina and her sister Ashlee just arrived to the hospital … along with Eric Johnson’s parents. Jessica has looked like she’s been ready to pop for weeks … but the little Johnson inside her wasn’t ready to come out … So far, no word from Jessica’s people.

SO … either Jessica is ready to give birth OR it’s possible that she has already given birth and we just don’t know yet. One way or the other, we should hear something definitive soon. Little baby Simpson-Johnson could bless us with her presence any second now … can you believe it? It feels like Jessica has been pregnant for so long, it’s about damn time, y’all. Stay tuned … we should be hearing something … well, hopefully soon.

Jessica Simpson gave birth to a baby girl, Maxwell Drew Johnson, in L.A. Tuesday morning, Us Weekly can confirm. This is her first child with fiance Eric Johnson. According to a source, little Maxwell (she takes her middle name from her maternal grandmother, Tina Simpson, whose maiden name is Drew) weighed in a 9 lbs. 13 ounces.

This news has NOT been confirmed officially so it’s possible that Us Weekly is merely reporting this news now that Jessica has checked into the hospital … tho, they claim to know the baby’s full name and birth weight so … who knows. If the baby has been born already, an official statement should be forthcoming. Again, stay tuned …

@Laura 9lbs 13oz is just slightly above average for a full term newborn and Jessica was term at 38 weeks 4 days when Maxwell Drew was born. depending on the size of Maxwell’s head determines weather Jess had a c-section or a vaginal delivery I was about the same length wise when I was born but my head was 27in around so I was born via 4th degree episotomy. as for the name it’s to honor family as I believe Henry Elkind’s middle name is Paul after his maternal grandfather screen legend Paul Newman and had he been a girl he probably would’ve been named Elinore after his maternal great grandmother or Joanne after his maternal grandmother screen legend Joanne Woodward
